What are glucose polymers called that are used as the major form of energy in plants?
Glucose makes Sugars and Starches and Cellulose.
A large molecule synthesized from many monomers is called a what?
they are called polymers
Are Polyaccharides long chain polymers of glucose units?
correct
What are the polymers that are produced in factories called?
Polymers.
Explain the connection between monomers and polymers?
Monomers are single units while polymers are monomers linked together. So with polysaccharides being polymers or monomers linked together, then think of a single monomer of sugar such as maltose.

Glucose makes Sugars and Starches and Cellulose.
Choose a sports beverage that?
Contains glucose, sucrose, or glucose polymers
What Starch and cellulose are?
They are all polysaccharides made of glucose monomers.
Does glucose form polymers with many subunits?
Yes.
What do starch and cellulose have in common?
Both are glucose polymers.
Glucose is considered a monomer because?
Because it is a single hexagonal ring structure.
A large molecule synthesized from many monomers is called a what?
they are called polymers
What is the name given to the glucose polymers made by animals?
glycogen
Are Polyaccharides long chain polymers of glucose units?
correct
What are the sources of sugar based polymers?
The ultimate source of natural sugar based polymers are plants. Plants make sugar (glucose) by photosynthesis. The glucose is then used to make polymers such as starch (amylose and amylopectin) and cellulose. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polysaccharide
What are the polymers that are produced in factories called?
Polymers.
What is carbohybrate?
Carbohydrates are hydrates of carbon. Glucose have the chemical formula of C6H12O6. Carbohydrates are polymers of glucose in most cases.
